    You absolutely can it’s just logistically awkward. Just think about it, how often do you eat lobster versus how often you eat steak?

    But I’m fairly sure that if you turned up at a farm you can actually do this, at least once or twice. Although long term I’m not sure it would be in the farmers interest because it’s probably more hassle than it’s worth.

      There’s also hanging time if they mean literally at the restaurant.

      Farms do this all the time, but they just take an order for a whole or half a steer and deliver it to the butchers. Who picks it up depends on circumstances. I don’t know if people do half on smaller live stock.
